Infinity is not a number, nor is it undefined. It is simply a concept. It has zero mathematical utility outside of thought experiments. It is impossible to do any mathematical calculations involving “infinity” and “infinity” is usually an answer received when something is wrong in the equation. Many of our current infinities come from an incomplete understanding of physics, they’re not truly infinite.
